Although the hearings of a Supreme Court nominee are supposed to be about the proposed Jurist's judicial record, temperament, and well knowledge of the law, this past weeks hearings for nominee Sonia Sotomayor seemed at many times all about race.

In a report filed by political talk show host Rachel Maddow on her MSNBC program of the same name, Maddow opined about the role race plays in everything from the nominating of a member of the U.S. Supreme Court to an professional baseball umpire calling balls and strikes. She also had a rather interesting debate with fellow MSNBC political talking head Pat Buchanan, who was trying to make a case for discrimination against white people and how Judge Sotomayor was not qualified to be on the court because she was an activist judge.
